In the latest patch, Graviteam has introduced the Panzerkampfwagen T-60 743(r), which is the Soviet T-60 light tank converted for German service.
Although we have seen this scout tank in action from the Soviet side, now we can enjoy it from the German side. I have not seen it in a German campaign yet, but certainly you can use it in the quick battles editor/generator. It is available in battles generated for the year 1942, as far I could see.
Armed with 20 mm cannon, the firepower is good enough for self defense and the occasional security mission. As with any other light tank, you are not supposed to use this scout tank against serious armor opposition.
The speed of this light tank is nothing to write home about it is not a good thing for the reconnaissance role. Of course it will outpace the infantry, but bugging out from serious trouble at high speed is not a T-60 gig.
On the bright side, the small chassis gives it an edge for inconspicuousness and for placing it in built-up areas' tight spaces.
I'm really hoping for a German paintjob. The Soviet painting scheme is somehow distracting.
Cheers,
